patching Bazel on Windows (infra bits, no patch yet) (#5918)
patch Bazel on Windows (ci setup)

We have a weird, intermittent bug on Windows where Bazel gets into a
broken state. To investigate, we need to patch Bazel to add more debug
output than present in the official distribution. This PR adds the basic
infrastructure we need to download the Bazel source code, apply a patch,
compile it, and make that binary available to the rest of the build.
This is for Windows only as we already have the ability to do similar
things on Linux and macOS through Nix.

This PR does not contain any intresting patch to Bazel, just the minimum
that we can check we are actually using the patched version.
